I upgraded to stock OTA 2.3.4 yesterday, but need to get root so I was going to unlock the bootloader.
Seems OEM unlock fastboot command does not work, as it says "oem unlock is not implemented"
Any ideas?
flash pudding and try again. and, im pretty sure you don't need to unlock the BL to get root.
Preinstall method should work on locked BL.

You have to RSD the modified sbf after the stock upgrade to get the unlocked bootloader then you can use the fastboot OEM unlock command.

I thought RSD SBF on OTA 2.3.4 =permabrick

I followed the instructions in the [DEV] forum and unlocked the bootloader and fastbooted new recovery with CWM and applied root from a new stock Atrix. I'm not a total noob having unlocked the bootloader on the Xoom now running Tiamat 1.1 and a Cappy on Continuum 6.1.

I know, i know i am a noob, but i have a question. If i root my Motorola Atrix, did that unlock the bootloader. I want to install the ROM Aura and in the Requirements: it said you need an unlocked bootloader, and i know i am rooted but not sure if i have an unlocked bootloader. Any help?
Rooting does NOT unlock the bootloader. What you need is use the IHOP (AKA Pudding) method.
Info about that is in the Dev section. Just search for IHOP and that will give you the info about how to unlock the BL...

I've been trying all day to flash the .71 firmware and different kernels for miui.
I really want miui to work on my x10. I've tried all the provided kernels for the miui Roms I've tried.
I can flash the uk generic firmware fine but when I try the kernels in flashtool it keeps saying error aborted and keeps doing that but if I try uk generic again it flashes fine.
I have x10i uk vodaphone
Thanks

Have you unlocked your boot loader?
It was previously unlocked. If I reflash original uk firmware does it relock again? Any app about to test if it locked or not?

SIM unlocked or bootloader unlocked? to check if bootloader is unlocked run this: (post#2)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254087
where it says: RUNNING S1_EROM FROM VER "r8Axxx" if the first letter is lowercase, you're unlocked. If you see "R8Axxx" the you will need to unlock.

I have unlocked my 2.3.5 bootloader. It only works from a specific situation so far though.
-I have NEVER done an sbf
-My Electrify was shipped with 2.3.5, not updated from 2.3.4 via OTA
If you fit both of these qualifications go to teamuscellular .com, electrify development forum and the thread titled 2.3.5 locked bootloader work around/fastboot and follow the guide in post #72. (sorry, can't post links yet)
I would encourage reading the entire thread, its a bit confusing but worth it.

search for this," automatic boot loader unlock V4.2," it's what I used to unlock mine a few months ago, from the same configuration.

Does the build number matter? What was yours?

You can ONLY use Automatic Unlock 4.2 if you own an ATT Atrix only.
If you have the international version ( one bough on ur own country, for example )
You should use this :

I personally used these instructions to unlock mine. I've also given these instructions to others who say they work great. Good luck!
